Vegan Refined Sugar Free Peanut Butter Cups

13/01/2019/

So we are well into Veganuary and I am missing my chocolate fix. What if I told you I had a recipe for delicious, vegan, refined sugar free peanut butter cups? You would surely want to get on board with that goodness, wouldn’t you? I thought so! Read on my lovelies, read on…

Pour the remaining mixture over the cases to cover the peanut butter disc and set in the freezer for around 45 minutes.

That’s it, enjoy! Keep in the fridge until you’re ready to eat them to ensure they don’t melt. They are obviously a lot richer and not as sweet as they would be if you used regular sugar, but being refined sugar free they are a lot better for you. You could also use cocoa powder instead of cacao powder, but in it’s raw state you can all the health benefits that cacao can give you, win-win! Don’t be tempted to make all the chocolate in one go to save time, if you don’t stir it constantly it will seize up and be unusable.

The base can be used for all kind of chocolate and you can add all manner of flavourings. My friend Lucy introduced me to DoTerra essential oils which are food grade and I love adding the wild orange to make bars! You can make your own fruit and nut too. If you try this recipe, let me know how your creations turn out!

Veganuary has definitely reignited my love for cooking from scratch, which can be so hard with small children. When I went back to work it was much easier to grab things for convenience, but no matter the meal I have been able to find some excellent vegan recipes to try, here are some of my other favourites, hope you enjoy!
